The implications of teaching encouragement bonus in the practice of the school of nursing of the UFMG

Abstract

The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of higher education teaching. Considering that the theme is new in the structuring of university careers, with little production in this area and the degree of references to support more intensive questioning is still preliminary, we have chosen an exploratory study using a qualitative approach. The subjects of the study were: teachers of the school of nursing and the administrators of the Federal University of Minas Gerais - UFMG. We found that the implementation of the bonus established a new culture in the school of nursing. We called it the "Culture of Overloading", which, exercised by teachers in their social labor relations, shows a production race in which people are trying to do more and more and are proud of this, without critical reflection about the political meaning of these actions.
